Hi Stefan

When disabling authoring on placeholder controls (setting
EnabledAuthoring = false). Why does this cause no content to be
rendered for that particular control in preview mode, even though the
placeholders bound definition contains content.


This problem seems to occurs with the single image, html placholder
control e.t.c.


Is this just a limitation of MCMS?


I do not really want to sub class each control to provide this
functionallity!


Any ideas?


Thanks in Advance

Hi Stefen

So are you saying that for every type of MCMS placeholder control that
I may disable I have to sub class
and implement the CreateAuthoringChildControls and
LoadContentForAuthoring methods to render literal text when the control
is read-only in edit mode?

When the MCMS placeholders are basically set to read only in edit mode
they appear as they would in say unpublished or published mode.  Why is
it that when you click the preview button in edit mode the read-only
placeholders do not appear at all?
Is this just a limitation in MCMS?

I haven't tried this, so I cannot comment on this.
Maybe someone else?
